I've done a search but came up empty. Has anyone installed removable side windows? Do you have pictures?

I'm considering removing mine (glued in) and installing them so that they can be taken out easily.

Thanks

Hey Shane,
I've bolted mine in but I really like the look without bolts because it really cleans up the lines of the car. I have to have removable windows for the track days we run.

My car has the side windows bolted in, detailed photos are on the USA website. If they didn't have one sided adhesive foam tape applied they would leak...but the foam is there and they don't leak air or water. I used the same foam tape on the headlight covers and they don't leak either. The tape is 1/16th thick and 3/8th's wide. I bought it from Tom Brown, Inc. in the USA.

Highly recommend doing this.

Looked around on the web and discovered some ideas regarding sliding side windows and photos to illustrate.

Ideas thoughts anyone?
Easier to stick your hand/arm out than opening the door to get your parking ticket, pick up your hamburger or show your driving license to the man in blue laugh

Well, from the picture and text on the site, looks like the plastic and opening is curved.
